Jody Watley feat. George Michael--"Learn to Say No"

Not a public service message about the dangers of drugs, but a hot (and underrated) track from her debut solo album. IMO, this song should have been released as a single.

Thank God someone brought this up. George has only done a handful of duets, but this is one of the funkier ones.

When I first discovered Ms. Watley I found out about this song and I was let down by it for some reason.

It's definately not in the vein of the rest of the album. It has more of a live feel to it.

It sounds a bit dated now. Watley had a strong sound for the sound of the time, but it's still a great song for me.

Yeah her self-titled solo debut. It's the very last song on the CD. Earlier today the vid was fine, but now it can't be embedded.
